How I’m Losing Weight

I basically altered my thinking about food in general. 

My favorite quote:

                        “If you want to change your life…change your mind” 

                                                          ~Author Unknown~

You can (and I did) reprogram your mind like someone programs a computer.

To me, it’s a mind thing.
I take one day at a time.
I have the determination and drive to succeed.
I planted it in my mind to succeed.

I will succeed!!

I try not to get frustrated because the scales won’t move sometimes (plateau’s)…I just keep going.
I get wonderful support from my friends and family members.
I keep constantly busy.
I am more active.
I spend a lot more time outdoors.
I exercise….’Sweatin’ to the oldies, Tae-Bo, yard work, woodwork, walking, etc.

I will succeed!!

I eat only healthy foods most of the time.
I’ve learned the difference in being hungry and just wanting something.
I eat only when I’m positive that I’m hungry.
I can so “NO!!” to unhealthy, fattening, sugar filled desserts/sweets and greasy foods.
I know I have a choice…I choose to eat healthy.

I will succeed!!

I think positive.  I love me.  I’ll take care of me.
If I fall off the track, no big deal, it happens, so I just pick myself up and keep on going.
I set 10 lb weight loss goals instead of looking at the over all weight that I have to lose.

I picture myself slim and trim.

I picture how good I’ll look on my Harley (Another goal I’m aiming for, to own a Harley)

Smile!!


I read labels.
I keep track of calories eaten.
I make notes.

At last but not least…I’m doing this for ME !!!
Losing weight down to 135 by December 31 is my ultimate goal.

I WILL SUCCEED!!
